On the agenda today: Taking the Wing rack out with me to a show where it's not the central mixer. What it IS going to do is tag up with the central mixer, copy the inputs from said mixer, and feed them into the WingLive. Once I have some audio files, I can play around with things "offline."

Last year, my show (Bessiefest) ran up against another, more-established show called Baja Blast (which had to change its name to Baja Bust). It was a "DIY" parking lot show that, for whatever reason, collapsed. Bad management, I'm told. So... Why not fill that void myself? DIY shows.

Rob Schneider's wife filed for divorce. Funniest thing he's done in 25 years.

Imagine millions of #Fallout players watching TV and suddenly exclaiming "Awww, it's Fisto!" with genuine affection...

Overhypedtale

People who actually hate the New England Patriots are somehow angry that Billdo Cheatins isn't a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer. He shouldn't be an ANY ballot Hall-of-Famer. Belichick is a piece of shit who got away with far, far too much to be considered any kind of legitimate.

I hate the Patriots. I also hate one of the coaches for the Seahawks; His family and mine? Bad juju. Fuck them both.

So... Definitely looks like there's a canon ending to New Vegas after all, despite what we've heard from production. And you know what? That makes me so very, very happy, because no matter which ending it is, it's going to make a whole bunch of New Vegas purists' heads asplode. Love it. #Fallout

That's the point: They WANT to do this to him, so they can point at him and go "See what happens when you come to the United States? So... Don't come to the United States unless you want your five year old to be like that." The cruelty is the fucking point, and it's mind numbing...

Whatever you do, don't figure out what to do to get this address to work...

Was difficult to tell up to now, but yep: The Silver Rush is right where it should be. #Fallout

This is like asking "Why wasn't Barry Bonds a first ballot shoe-in?"

At this point, the only people who'll still actually show up will probably be the Saudis. So, expect the World Cup to look a lot like a WWE PLE...

Remember: It's not just ICE. There's still such a thing as private detention centers. And they have employees who are just as fucking terrible as ICE. If you know where one is, you know what to do. Don't let ANY part of this cruelty machine slip under the radar.

Years upon years of droning choruses of "The left is coming for your guns!" And what do they get for their panic? "You can't have guns." -- Donald John Trump

She was ready to fuck his day up. Fuck that guy. I say let Ilhan beat his ass.

Can we be done with neo-liberal relics who just want to maintain the status quo? Because fuck Rahm Emanuel and fuck every neo-liberal clinging to any shred of power. Enough is enough. It's time for a change. And that change needs to be a big ol' swing to the left.

I bet you can find about 85% of their wives active on Fetlife...

The deep dive into my Wing continues. Some of the in-channel options (especially on the studio side) are insane, well beyond anything the X32 was ever capable of. I may need to start a side hustle doing live recording and mastering...

This... This is just silly. But they sell, because my collection's max value over on @discogsofficial.bsky.social keeps going up, up, up; This is one of the bigger contributors. And to think: I paid all of $22 for this... o.O #Fallout #VinylRecords #Collector #ThatsInsane

No. I will not comply.

It's worth repeating: In every photo of Kash Patel, he's trying really hard to look tough, but he always ends up looking like he farted and is terrified that everyone knows it was him...

Pretty sure my neighbor was pleasantly surprised this afternoon when she went outside. She had to have seen me shoveling at different points yesterday, but she wasn't aware that I'd also been digging out and brushing off her car, too. When I was laid up after surgery, she helped. Least I can do <3

Bring me Greg Bovino, so that I might Rochambeau him.

Worst things about YouTube #27: Bearskin Hoodie commercials. Seriously: How tiny does your dick have to be that you need a "tactical" hoodie? Me, I'm of average build and have a generic Sherpa-lined hoodie. It kept me plenty warm whilst shoveling snow over the last 30 hours...

They're waiting for Trump to die. Then it'll be just like the Jimmy Savile fallout, minus Operation Yewtree.

In other, less-angry LP news, the snow has started back up here in Cleveland. Yesterday was fun; I started shoveling and clearing/running my truck at about 4am, and then every few hours after until around 9pm, when the snow stopped for a bit. Gives me a distraction from being pissed off at America.

I'll go one step further, @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social, and posit that those 10 shots were fired BECAUSE they removed thew gun from Pretti's holster. Once it was gone, the remaining goons saw the empty holster and panicked.

"There must be 50 ways to clean a rubber" or whatever Art Garfunkle said...

Either you stand up now, or when the time comes and you absolutely must stand up, there won't be anyone left to stand with you...

You could have left out "who has broken the law" and the statement would have still been perfectly acceptable.

Please do not be too upset with those of us who aren't really on board with the whole American Nazi thing. We're working on it, though a fair few of us are a bit slower than others at getting to where we need to be in order to fix this...

See you when you finally join us at stage 4, Medi.

Dear ICE:

MAGA is basically tolerating a pedo because they're giddy over the soft ethnic cleansing.

I will say it again, for the people in the back: Bring me Greg Bovino, so that I might Rochambeau him.

When you're prepared for a solid week of winter storm shenanigans, by default. I'm literally prepared the same amount in July. I keep a backstash of simple, easy-to-keep/make stuff, it's not hard. Plus, it's just me here: I buy bulk TP maybe twice a year...

Doing a deep dive on the Wing this evening. Lots of fun options over the X32. Three different ways to route FX is fun...

Nothing makes my day brighter than seeing all the coverage of the general strike in Minneapolis, including a massive "CHINGA LA MIGRA" sign. Nothing like blissfully saying "Fuck ICE" without a blur or censor bar... #ChingaLaMigra

Bring me Greg Bovino, that I might Rochambeau him.

Legembi. Look it up.

Hearing "Sweet Child O' Mine" on a Classic Rock station... in 1997...

Quite thrilled that the cold has caused enough problems in my orbit (but not directly to me) that I've been able to just kinda chill at home the last few days, and that trend will continue until my next show on Saturday. Gotta love it when I'm not buying two tanks of gas in any seven day span...

Don't worry. Those of us who know what an EMP is will take care of it eventually.

Some people want to watch the world burn. I'm content watching just my hometown burn down piece by piece from 200+ miles away...

Nothing stopping you from pulling a Maduro on the orange menace, eh...

Yeah, I used to love Dungeon Keeper 2...

Primus, The Claypool Lennon Delirium and Col. Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade, all on one stage at one time? Sign me the fuck up!

There's a lot of political cope going on today on BlueSky... It's almost as if people are trying to convince themselves that they couldn't possibly have been wrong, and that a small group of other, ideologically-different people are to blame...
